I love watching Tara Lipinski and Johnny Weir together on

Olympic ice skating. They both dress flashy, both have their hair done up neat, and they are like two peas in a pod together, just perfect.

I wish Pence could meet Johnny instead of Rippon and meet what a real man is all about: courage, self-confidence, and the Golden Rule.

We find it a wonderful change from those big venue events. It's more cerebral with exacting execution.

Pissant Pence can’t be alone with women other than Mother. Mother would probably also have a fit if he were alone with someone as super cool, confident and talented as Johnny.

I find them hilarious,too. They obviously love their job, and they have so much fun with it.

For some reason, I thought the games started on Friday. I missed the opening ceremony. Dammit.

Then they have opening ceremony on friday night for maximum exposure and ratings.

A favorite memory is from London, with a QE2 look-alike parachuting and meeting up with Daniel Craig as James Bond.
